From an operations stand point, make sure the quote from the contractor includes — full containment and HEPA filtered negative air movers that ideally can exhaust to the exterior, manometer with print out logs documenting the containment’s negative pressure throughout the mitigation, full removal of affected materials (drywall, baseboard), (wood framing can sometimes be sanded and then sprayed with a spor/fungicide), and finally an *inspection by a third party environmental hygienist for air clearance*.

My agent was adamant about showing it to me, even though it was not on my vetted list of properties (probably because it was a dual agency situation?).

I’m gonna say that you shouldn’t try to air bnb that unit because HUD could come by to make sure your in that unit and if your not they can ask for you to pay that loan in full.

I know air bnb can be a pain in the *** but I'm willing to give it a try for a little while.  

I’m 29 years old working as an air traffic controller in San Diego, CA at a place called Southern California Terminal Radar Approach Control, or SocalTRACON.

I was in the Air Force for 8 years, and had planned to make it a career, now because of certain circumstances I have been back in the civilian world for the last two years and I am now realizing that I don't want to work for someone else for the rest of my life never finding financial freedom.

I have been doing some research in the Nova Scotia Air BnB market.  

Are there any deferred maintenance items that need to be addressed (i.e. air conditioning, hot water heater, etc.)?

If possible, getting a part-time job that would serve dual purposes of income & benefit to REI (Home Depot, Prop Mgt, handyman, etc.) might be a good play.

Definitely worth buying an air purifier while you're staying here.
